Shortness of breath

Hey guys,

Just a little moan really... im so short of breath all the time at the moment. I know she is prob up in my diaphram and thats why but its really quite scarey!!

I suffer from asthma so i know how panicked i can get when i cant get my breath, im hoping she ill drop in next few weeks and ease up on my squashed lungs x x

Hope u guys are not suffering as bad as i am!! especially when i have so much going off at the moment, tryin to decorate jut bout every room in the house and i have a 3000 word assignment to finish, thought i would be putting my feet up and watching day time TV by now... lol

Hope all ladies an bump are doing well x x

Hi, unfortunately it's quite normal but horrible at the same time.... It should ease a bit when baby engages.

The only other contributing factor it could be is your iron level, if you are anemic it will make you a bit short of breath.

Take care!

Hi Laura,

I'm only 26weeks and I also suffer from this especially if i do alot of talking or i'm in a rush. I have also suffered with asthma so maybe its linked with the added weight we are carrying from the baby?

Havn't heard from you in a while, not long to go now hey

Hope you are well,

I know how you feel

Hey hun

Although i dont suffer from asthma i have been suffering from shortness of breath. The first thing my mw did was take bloods for my iron levels, which came back abit low and now im on iron supplements. Its normal in pregnancy to develop anemia as the body needs so much more to have it work so its always worth checking out also just in case iron levels are low.

Hope it gets easier soon!
